Flashing air directive.

Post by tyronec »

I have 5 recon directives with one air group and one was flashing, it didn't execute so presume the flashing meant here was something wrong with it. How can I find out what ?
The 5 were all strategic recon, there were no differences I could see except the problem one was in France and from a different airfield. Had plenty of aircraft and the range was very short. Tried deleting and recreating but made no difference. Any thoughts ?

Not come across this. Did you exceed the number of Air Directives your leader can handle?

Did the tool tip give any info?; I just had a 'flashing ground attack AD' and the 'tool tip' said there were 'no valid targets'. Not sure that applies to recon AD though.

Do you mean the 'box' on the map for that mission was flashing? Either way, open the mission... usually it is lack of aircraft that does that.

Found the place where it told me why it was not working. Was bombing v-sites and needed to be tactical recon, not strategic.
